Kudos to Winco for listening to their customers. I've always been a fan of Winco. It is employee-owned and has been a more relaxed shopping environment. However, I stopped coming here recently because employees felt the need to school, scold, and complain at their customers. They just did not seem happy to be working at Winco. After a 6 months hiatus, I returned and noticed that they have almost all new checkers. I had the pleasure of meeting Cody, who was professional, efficient, courteous, and friendly. A customer ahead of me had an issue with the debit card machine. Cody was very patient and worked with the customer to resolve the issue. That would not have happened without eyerolls a few months ago. In our currently grim and customer-hostile world, it is nice to see that Winco is preserving the pleasant and humane shopping experience. read more

This location is always so organized and clean when we come through. All the staff is friendly and helpful. I love coming to the deli for fresh jojos and fried chicken. Everyone in the deli that I've encountered has always greeted me with a smile. Such great customer service and great prices. read more

This WinCo location is different from other locations in two noteworthy ways: 1. It is much larger, and has aisles wide enough easy browsing and not getting crowded by other shoppers 2. It is MUCH dirtier. I've never seen so much trash in front of a store in my entire life With that said, though, the rest of the experience is very much signature WinCo, with a wider variety afforded by the much larger footprint. Prices are generally low, but some items seem more expensive than the same at other locations. read more

WinCo Foods - Much wider aisles than at other locations - Grocery Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Winco has great deals on the items that you need! Yes, you get to bag your groceries, but you save money

I will not return to this winco. The customer service is terrible. Not enough cashiers. The one positive is that the cashier that did help me, had a positive attitude. Wish I would have gotten her name. Too many negatives to even write in the review. read more

WinCo Foods is great. I wish they had one in SF. Very vegan friendly. Affordable prices. Think Grocery Outlet combined with a store the size of Cost-co with an amazing selection of produce and everything you can imagine. Open 24 hours a day. Best thing about it is it is a worker owned collective so workers get benefits and no membership is needed to shop here. In word stellar! read more

They didn't tell me in a nice way very rude didn't check make sure reader card working all they told me is reader card in every cashier station is working they should been a little helpful and nicer saying I'll trouble check the reader card .that was when I called on the phone. They didn't asked if there name and if they were store manager read more

Great service! Dalton is super friendly and a hard worker. It makes the shopping trip so much better after being able to chat with him when checking out. The prices here are great as always and the food is satisfying. read more

I actually like WinCo but this morning they missed the staffing. Checkout lines had at least 10 carts in the isles this morning. read more

See all

This store does not take returns on perishable items. I got a sealed bag of imitation crab that was slimy when I immediately opened it. Return counter said no returns on perishables. Funny how Walmart and Costco take them back. If you must shop here I suggest not buying perishables. read more

Long lines with not enough checkers. I was behind 3 full carts - I had 7 items. Someone came to open a new lane and she asked the guy behind me with a full cart to go in front of me. I was in line another 20 minutes while he was in and out. I was furious! Pay attention people! I won't be back. Ever. read more

This store and grounds are dirty and poorly stocked. Employees smoke outside right where customers are walking to the store and there is trash everywhere. Prices are so expensive here now. $9 for a tub of margarine, creamer out of stock for several weeks, meat is ridiculous for average quality and produce is very poor quality that doesn't last. Cashiers aren't friendly and everyone acts like you owe them something. We might as well shop at the expensive stores now. Again nobody cares. read more

I really like their selections they have and affordable prices as well! I really like how they have the sesame wasabi poké and I get it in the big container because they really filled it up, an I mean, FILLED UP! This place is my stop always for neccessities on-the-go! read more

Cashier was friendly both times that I've been there and they have a good selection of most everything.

New to Vancouver Washington my stepson introduced us to this mkt.Fair prices good quality food,friendly service. Be aware they only take debit cards or cash. read more

Cannot believe the sheer number of mask nazis in the reviews. Listen, everybody who wants it can get vaccinated. I did; so can you. Leave the rest of us out of your neurotic obsession from now on. You jumped the shark months ago and nobody wants you to push your fanaticism on the rest of us. We wear masks now because insurance requirements mean retailers must mandate them. It isn't a health precaution. It's a rule that is getting dumber by the day. Not getting down on WinCo or any other business that requires masks. Gotta do what you gotta do. But you vigilantes need to give it a rest. read more

Very good but you can taste the cardboard in the pizza. My family shops here all the time but today I tasted the cardboard And Blah blah blah, have I reached minimum characters yet? read more

Variety and prices. They usually carry everything I need. The staff is nice, but they sometimes are short of staff. They have late hours, which I prefer. read more

I came in to pick a few item up and apparently a 6 pack of hard lemonade was in different order which I saw it in the cooler as it was and didn't see an issue with it, but apparently a worker did she reached right in my cart and took it away and voided it off my orders while waiting for the register to open. I told the rude women it was fine , but took it away.....brought back a different 6 pack ...on the box the original one I chose had pink and red and purple berries just like the bottles.....I felt like it could have just been left alone rather than make me feel like a fool. read more

Great prices on everything and even better prices on store brands!!! I would love to have a winch in Hood River or The Dalles!

This place is sick af. I go here all the time and Leah's have a sick experience. No cap

I observed the same thing as another reviewer Kal. Some employees are wearing their masks with the nostrils clearly exposed and I've seen them do so with lead clerks around who just let it happen. Seeing this review is claimed, they have got to be aware of those reviews, yet it continues to occur so I'm forced to come to the conclusion that they're rather indifferent towards the health and well being of their customers in their store. In March 2021, a feud between two guests at a Winco location about 10 miles south from this one ended up with one of them shooting the other inside the store which killed the victim. The corporate office issued a press statement "We are grateful that all of our employee owners are safe and unharmed and that the store opened back up to the community this morning for regular business." I guess customer well being isn't a major concern to them. There wasn't even a mention about safety of customers in that and that press statement didn't give me an impression that customer safety is a great concern. read more

This is my favorite Winco in Vancouver, Washington. It is the cleanest and less hood most likely because of the nice neighborhood it is surrounded by. Winco usually has the best prices for groceries. The lines maybe long but the clerks do a great job of keeping it moving fast. read more

When you walk into Winco, don't be fooled by the hanging sign designating the "aerosol cheese" section. There is certainly that type of low-brow fare at Winco, but they also have artisan cheeses near the deli that are to die for! I like to buy my beverages here. Where else can you get a six-pack of Hornsby's for $4.88? That's at least 2 bucks cheaper than anywhere else. The bulk food section is amazing and CHEAP - everything from cereals and spices to nuts, grains and dried fruit. They have a seasonal section where I buy yard and garden supplies for insanely cheap prices. Check them out right after Xmas for expensive foil gift wrap for 10 cents a roll. The produce is hit or miss - I don't recommend any of the greens (which are mostly from Mexico) but the other fruits and veggies are above average and very cheap. It's not the most beautiful produce in the world (apples are small and a little misshapen) but it'll do, if you are on a tight budget. I buy tons of limes and lemons to squeeze and freeze the juice for margaritas in the summer. If you are into locally grown and/or organic food, than this is not the place for you, but if you are on a really tight budget and need the basics, it's worth the drive to stock up at one of your local Wincos. Did I mention how cheap everything is? read more

First off everyone here is super rude. There hours are not updated online. So I went late at night to avoid the crowds. I get there. They close at 10. Which I understand, but they didn't have to be so rude about it. They let me come in and grab a few things with a attitude. When I was leaving I said why haven't you update your hours? He then pointed at the door. Who the f checks the door before going shopping. Just take your business elsewhere. read more

Its winch so as expected, bulk prices, decent selection, the random items like baskets, seasonal items and household or office too. Deli stuff is okay, fried ravioli is good as is the pizza. Uscan makes it so you can get in and out without coming face to face with employees. Good for everyone considering the pandemic. Be safe, try the ravioli. read more

Today at 7:30 am there was no chicken available to purchase and very limited produce and dairy. I will have to go elsewhere and decide whether this is the right store going forward. read more

Well, ever since the hysteria began, winco was clearly ready to go overboard after the panic buying that occurred. However, the funny thing is staff is either casual about safety or absolutley insane. There's no reasoning with them. I think I'll hit Walmart for my chicken wings for the next month. Sure, higher priced, but not so scared of their customers. read more

I had been loyal customer to winco store for long time since they open this grocery store ; the only reason is because employees ownership. Last time I used the self checkout and need help but the person in charge to help people wasn't in the mood to help me at all , she was very rude and unprofessional, that will be my last try to help this business make money , we spends thousands dollars every year . Good luck I hoping you guys go out business soon . read more

Feb 2021, peak COVID-19 numbers, and THREE of the bakery employees had their masks pulled down to their chin. They were handling prepared food, interacting with customers, etc. all while not wearing their masks properly, breathing all over everything. Did not catch the third name, but two were Lisa and Siana. Hopefully management will do something about this. read more

Winco is the best grocery store ever. It's bulk section is fantastic so much to choose from. Deli prices are the best around. A great staff...very helpful and friendly. The best thing is that it's only 1.5 miles away. read more

I have always loved coming to this Winco on 136th Store #0049 All employees have always been helpful, friendly available if anyone has any questions until tonight. Me and my daughter were doing major shopping tonight we got two carts so that I wouldn't hold up the line and could bag quickly and put it in the first cart the not hold up the line at all, Carlos who was our cashier, very nice as I have always experienced at this Winco. First, suddenly when I went to bag our groceries a older women, a employee at Winco by the of Donna, stepped in front of me and started adjusting the bags, she obviously saw me waiting to bag the groceries while our groceries were piling up on the belt. When Miss Donna finished she walked up to our cashier Carlos and said "I'll take over!" Carlos then said "WHAT...right in the middle of a transaction?" She replied "YES AND IS THIS YOUR WATER??" Then she started forcefully scanning things and tossing them onto the belt when she looked at me and said "so when does your stuff end!" I said "its all together" she replied "GREAT" Very sarcastically! Once my daughter got the rest of our groceries on the belt and moved the cart to the end Donna the cashier looked at her and said "you need to start bagging on the other qside!" My daughter replied " oh we are together" She said YES! I KNOW THAT! YOU STILL NEED TO GO TO THE OTHER SIDE AND START BAGGING YOUR STUFF! I then said to her can you please put our stuff back on our side there is plenty of room. She then started throwing our stuff to the other side of the belt, she missed a few times and a few of our things landed on the floor and next to the register. There was plenty of room to finish our transaction without stacking it on the other side. My daughter and I already felt very humiliated and embarrassed, we didn't want to make the next customers in line wait to long. Happened on.... 11/9/2020 18:00:30pm Cashiers name...Donna read more

I worked for, WinCo, very briefly. In my interview, I was told of the high standard WinCo has set for me. I can tell you that I met the standard that WinCo could not. I have an amazing work ethic. Came in on my days off or when needed. I witnessed the "lead clerks", screw off all night while cashiers kept pumping out the food and customers. Management is lazy and pay is low, 12.00 hr. Schedules are never the same. If you are a great worker with amazing customer service skills, don't expect WinCo to meet it's own standard. It is a blatant disrespectful "lead clerk" that screws off openly in front of her hard working co-workers. 136th Ave. Vancouver wa. You know who you are. There are low paying jobs with messed up schedules, uncaring management, screw off crew with intent to monopolize your life, anywhere in the city. You can do better than WinCo by working customer service in another environment. A "lead clerk" should lead by example. This woman is an example of piss poor leadership and management. She is a warm body. Shame on managers like them. People don't leave good jobs, even at low wages. They leave management that has no integrity or ethics. Management that allows the dime to hold up the dollar, is a non viable cluster f#@k!!! No regrets for me, I stood up for myself. read more

1 * : Open 24/7. Just about always an automatic star for this factor. 2 *: I don't know what other WinCo's some of the other people reviewing this place have been to, but this store is WAY cleaner than most of the Portland-area ones, especially the ones in SE... 3 *: New WA legislation = l-i-q-u-o-r . Doesn't take a whole lotta liquor to like that law. 4 *: It's conveniently located near a place I sometimes work, and very close to 205. 5 *: It's employee-owned, yet still significantly cheaper than Safeway, Fred's, etc-- even w/the sales tax. read more

This is my weekly meats and potatoes shopping spot. Great selection of vegetables and fresh meats. They carry their fair share of organic products. I particularly go for the organic: prepackage baby salad, tofu, and soy-milk every time I'm here. Now only if they carried lamb... I need more of a variety of red meats then the typical beef and pork. read more

It's about time I'm writing a review for this place. I've only been part of Yelp since 2007 and shopping at this Winco just as long! Grocery shopping here is just about a weekly adventure for me. I'm not exaggerating either. I have a select few checkers that I go to because they are quick and efficient. They recognize my family and I as well...so much so that they pretty much know what will be in our cart! Also, if one of us are missing, they ask if everything is alright. I guess it's nice of them if you think about it or maybe it's a sign that I grocery shop too much. Items here are a lot cheaper than most other places yet you're getting the same products! The produce is great as long as you're willing to do some digging. The meat selection is pretty decent too. Thank you Winco for giving the Couve an alright place to get some groceries. read more

This winco is the closest one to my house and in comparison to Fred Meyers or Safeway, the prices are cheap! It is open 24/7, so of course you get some sketchy looking people shopping here late at night. I'm gonna miss this place when I move away because you can't beat the prices at winco! read more

If only in Tempe AZ we were privileged to have one of these!! Fresh produce, bulk quinoa and other goodies and GREAT prices!! read more

First time to Winco today. We didn't have them in the state that I moved from. Store was clean and selection was good. Prices were equivalent to walmart or better. You bag your own groceries which is fine with me as I take my own bags. The butcher that helped me was fantastic. Friendly and went out of his way to find the meat I was looking for. My only issue was the guy that checked me out. He was a little bit snippy when I tried to pay with my credit card. He knew it was my first time in the store per our conversation. I had no idea that they only took cash, debit, or checks. There were no signs around the store screaming the fact that credit was not accepted. Luckily I had cash on me. So I will probably go back since the prices were good but if I have too many more employee interactions such as that, I will spend my money elsewhere. read more

I shutter to think how much we spend here! A family of 7 needs cheap groceries! I like WinCo because it's conveniently located and stocks pretty much everything. I love the beer prices- best in Vancouver. I wish I could get Blue Buffalo dog food here. read more
